Profitec Pro 500: Heating Element Replacement

Before doing this we recommend draining the machine, unplugging it and allowing it to fully cool off.

Tools Needed:

• 2.5mm Allen Wrench
• 3mm Allen Wrench
• 13mm Wrench or 13mm Deep Socket and Ratcheting Wrench
• 17mm Wrench
• 1400W Element (if replacing)
• Replacement Heating Element Gasket

1. Remove the panels from the machine, step by step instructions can be found here: Pro 500 Panel Removal

2. Remove the top nut from the copper pipe that is blocking the element with a 17mm crescent wrench. Carefully move it out of the way so you can access the element.

3. Remove the 2 wires from the element, then use the 13mm wrench to remove the 3 nuts holding the element in place. From here you can swap the element and (if needed) the gasket between the element and the boiler.
